Quarterly Exploration Update Resources Technical Reports | Rep. of Congo Soil samples are sieved in the field to -60 mesh in stainless steel sieves and shipped from the Projects to ALS-Chemex's Johannesburg, South Africa facilities for analysis. Rock chip samples are crushed at the field camp to about -5mm in a jaw crusher, quartered and shipped from the Project to ALS-Chemex's Johannesburg, South Africa Laboratories for pulverization and analysis. The sample pulps are analyzed by ICP-MS at the ALS Chemex, Johannesburg South Africa laboratory. For quality control purposes, internal lab, standards and blanks have been considered at this stage of the exploration. The Quality Control/Quality Assurance (QA/QC) program for the Congo-Brazzaville Projects is under the management of Dr. Demetrius Pohl.,Ph.D., P.Geo (AIPG), a qualified person as defined under NI 43-101. Eritrea Samples are sent for crushing to Africa Horn Laboratories in Asmara, Eritrea who then directly air-freight the crushed samples to Genalysis Laboratories in Perth, Western Australia. Rocklabs gold reference standards are included randomly in the sample stream at the rate of 5 per 100 samples. Genalysis Laboratories complete final grinding prior to assay. All splits and rejects produced during sample preparation are retained at Genalysis Laboratories. Dr. Demetrius Pohl, is the Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and Vice President of Exploration for the Company. Argentina/Chile Samples from are sent to ACME analytical labs in Mendoza Argentina and Santiago, Chile, for analysis using conventional ICP methods with multi-acid digestion. A 50 gram fire assay with AA (atomic absorption) finish is run on all samples for gold. A series of blanks are routinely introduced with each batch of samples. Quality controls include preparation and analysis statistics performed to industry standards. Dr. Diego Charchaflie, P.Geo. (BC), Senior Geologist, Argentina, is the Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. Canada At the GJ/Kinaskan project in B.C., the Main and North Donnelly Zone resource estimate was prepared by qualified person Mr. Gary Giroux. P.Eng. using a computer-generated block model based on approximately 42,000 metres of diamond drilling in 169 drill holes. A total of 9,883 assayed samples were used to define the resource. The drill programs and sampling were supervised by qualified person David Mehner, P.Geo., Project Geologist for NGEx Resources (Canadian Gold Hunter). Appropriate quality control and quality assurance protocols were utilized on the program. Standard reference samples, blanks and duplicates were inserted in each batch of samples for assay. The drill samples were analyzed for gold by fire assay / atomic absorption and for copper by ICP and by atomic absorption for those samples over 1%, by ALS-Chemex in North Vancouver, B.C., Canada. All assay results were examined by independent engineer Dr. Giles Peatfield, P.Eng. | ||||
